What is being recalled

Mercedes-Benz USA, LLC (MBUSA) is recalling certain 2023 GLC 300 and GLC 300 4MATIC vehicles. The headlights are missing adjustment prevention caps, which can allow the headlights to be improperly adjusted. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Why it is dangerous

Improperly adjusted headlights can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Dealers will inspect the headlights for sealing caps and install caps as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 18, 2025. Owners may contact MBUSA customer service at 1-800-367-6372. MBUSA's number for this recall is 2025060005.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 25V-365 when calling a dealer.
